July 2020, Evans Head, NSW
We cooked fried rice and when crawling under the bed to put the rice cooker away (an essential on every caravan) I noticed water pooling under the hot water service. Funny, earlier we’d noticed water dripping from the front of the van and thought it must be a consequence of the Alstonville rain. Anyway, we dried it up, mounted the controller circuit board above the damp on an upturned mushroom carton and decided to check things out in daylight the next day. Why anyone would place a circuit board on the floor defies logic and we expensively swamped one of these a few years ago in Dongara, WA when a hot water fitting burst. Let’s hope that the mushroom box will help.

An Update
Double or Nuthin’ and Shirley Temple are now in Tamworth. Their mate Tiki was refused entry to Evans Head caravan park. Why? For being a Victorian we’re told. I guess that makes our wad of receipts even more precious.
Melbourne cases are growing, Sydney’s cases are on the move too. As you can imagine we wait anxiously for the ping of breaking news each morning at 11:00.

Probably not nearly as anxiously as we here in the pariah state do! And here in Bendigo which has become a regional hot spot…….

Worrying times indeed, stay safe and well.

There’s a degree of madness with the borders. I’m positive it’s for purely financial gain but SA is considering allowing in flights of OS students yet Victorians from isolated SA communities aren’t allowed in! Where’s the biggest danger likely to come from?

And the little town of Francis front and centre on the TV news this morning. Who would’ve thought.

The school is in Francis, SA but apparently most of the kids are Victorian.

It does seem to be on the rise again in your neck of the woods, lets hope it’s only small isolated outbreaks and not an indication of something bigger. Worrying times for everyone.

That’s the nature of this cursed thing, it only takes one small mistake and it’s off like a bushfire. Our case numbers are nowhere near those of other countries and we can only hope that it is brought under control. Stay safe.
